Americans cruise to 5-2 win over Slovakia at world juniors
TORONTO — Team USA goaltender Joseph Woll, perhaps, got a glimpse of his future on Wednesday night.
The Maple Leafs’ 2016 third-round pick made 18 saves in his first career appearance at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre, leading the American squad to a 5-2 victory over Slovakia.
“I think any game in the world juniors is a special experience with the atmosphere and everything you’re representing,” said Woll. “Especially being able to play that (game) at the Air Canada Centre and have that first experience playing here is something I’ll never forget.
“Just thinking one day I could be walking in this building later on really gives me something to work towards.”
